Dorsal-Ventral Patterning Genes The dorsal/ventral boundary of the developing wing imaginal disc structures the growth of the entire wing. Dorsal-ventral Patterning Genes transcription factors: brinker, dorsal, bagpipe, CrebA, C-terminal binding protein, Medea, nejire, pannier, schnurri, single minded, snail, tinman, twist, zerknüllt ventral lateral system or spitz group: pointed, rhomboid, single minded, sichel (maternal), spitz, Star Secreted factors: dpp, folded gastrulation, screw, short gastrulation, twisted gastrulation, tolloid, tolloid related-1 receptors for DPP: punt, saxophone, thick veins DPP pathway: Medea, MAD regulation of genes involved in dorsal-ventral patterning Dorsoventral patterning of the Drosophila Embryo is initiated by a broad Dorsal nuclear gradient, which is regulated by a conserved signaling pathway that includes the Toll receptor and Pelle kinase.
